Display products while index is updating

When you run a full update of the ecommerce search index (Lucene) no products are displayed on the site during this update.

This is a problem when we have a large product catalog, because it takes a long time for this update to complete.

It would be great if you could change this so that products are displayed all the time. Maybe you could do a full update on a separate index and then replace the actual index when it is completed?

Hi, I have talked to Jonas, he says that its documented in this post:

http://developer.dynamicweb-cms.com/forum/development/problem-with-indexing.aspx

Documentation should be on its way. mb you should file a support case.

I have just promised a client today that the problem was fixed in 8.3.

Please post any solution.

There is no solution on that given thread as you can see that I did not get a reply on my last question. And most of the settings from Pavels reply does not exist in GlobalSettings.aspx

 

Best regards, Anders

You just add the settings to Globalsettings.aspx manually.

 

With regards to the exceptions you encountered, they should be fixed in 8.3 where lucene is also now 3.x and not 2.9. Also some code was fixed that would cause exceptions and Lock the index in some situations.

 

We have an item being worked these days to give you settings in the management center. Should be out with the next service release.

I hope that these settings will be on each index instead of just general settings for all indexes in a solution.

Hi Anders

 

Yes, we talked about this - forcing indexes to Work like that no matter what.
